Great songs- emotions on the sleeve-music and arrangements compliment the words perfectly, vocals stronger than all the other alternative-type women singer-somgwriters.

Jan Marvel is an incredible performer with a passionate message of survivorship to tell. She does that through her music, it's powerful and healing. It reaches in and grabs you by the heart. First class production. Tell your friends about this one.

I found this to be an incredibly moving musical experience. The artist puts words to the emotions that we all deal with. If you are tired of songs that sound so good and say so little, this is what you are looking for. Shear musical talent, earthy vocals, and raw lyrics, fuse to form this revolutionary album. You will wonder, "Where have these songs been all my life?"

I liked this so much, I've already told several friends about it. It's hard to say which I like more - the music, Jan Marvel's voice, the emotion in each song, or the lyrics. I would definitely recommend this CD to anyone, especially survivors.

Jan's music seems to be a great cross between Joni Mitchell, Jewel, Sade, and a little Alannis Morrisette combined. It's lyrics will move any survivor, her voice has a haunting quality that goes right to the soul. I loved the CD and as a fellow survivor I felt the music.
